Presenter shares drawing about components in AAI. Positions midPoint (https://evolveum.com/midpoint/ ), Perun (https://www.cesnet.cz/services/perun/?lang=en) and Syncope (https://syncope.apache.org/ ) as IDM-component within AAI. Attending the session are devs of midPoint and Perun.
Question of devs is: who is using what for what components of AAI and what could midPoint and Perun learn from this.
One attending federation is using WSO2 (https://wso2.com/ ).
Fyi, regarding open source tools for AAI: SURFnet has open sourced a group management solution, Group Hub (https://www.surf.nl/binaries/content/assets/surf/en/knowledgebase/2016/201604_surfconext_group-management_english.pdf), trying to solve the problem:
- IT controls the AD (IDM) and does not want teachers etc to edit the AD
- Teachers work with groups for projects with students etc but don't have tools, so they end up using Excel etc
GroupHub is a tool institutions can have teachers manage groups in, where you can sync those groups with the AD/IDM and through VOOT with tools like SURFconext Teams.
